NO TRUE CHRISTIANS!
There is no doubt in my mind that there is not one true Christian on the planet, and I can prove it. There are several signs of a true believer that are very plain in the Bible. Unlike many of the passages of the Bible, these particular verses are very plain and nearly impossible to misinterpret or take out of context. Let's consider these statements supposedly written by the Apostle John, otherwise known as the disciple whom Jesus loved, as he quoted his master and his God: 1) John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. 2) John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. 3) John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. This seems pretty plain to me. If you love the Lord, you keep his commandments. Simple! John the Apostle emph...

What is even more upsetting (about some of these), is where they quote political leaders who believe god is TELLING THEM WHAT TO DO!!
So how long will it be before we elect some intelligent, non-religious person, as president?
Will it be in our lifetimes, or century's from now; that is if these nuts don't wipe out civilization first.

It's nothing more than pure "Manipulation" my friend.
Politicians telling people what they want to hear, (Or at least telling naive christians what they want to hear).
Jorge Dubbya Shrub (George W. Bush) is a prime example.

AEB,
I've had those thoughts often as well.
Meaning, are they just giving lip service to the believers; in the interest of self-preservation in politics, or do some really believe god has spoken to them?
The former is a LIE and the latter is well, just toooo scary to think about.
Now let's suppose that folks like Pres. Bush are just doing the lip service, show&tell thing.
Put yourself in this man's xtian shoes for a second.
He's no doubt a xtian (of some kind) and he's our President. The president of such a powerful country on this lonely earth, that this god is said to have created and put his creation upon.
If you were him, wouldn't you be asking yourself why god isn't making some kind of direct contact with you. You as the president of this country I mean, and not an individual.
I say this because most claim this country is a xtian nation, under god no less.
How COMMON was it in the OT for god to communicate with the many leaders of his favorite tribes, especially when they were fighting against god's enemies.
So it makes sense to me that this god/jesus should be talking to our President, and Bush must be thinking the same thing and wondering why god isn't.
Well, that is assuming of course, that Bush isn't hearing those little god voices in his head that some fundies here claim happens with them.
Just a thought for you AEB
ATF( who noticed we are being confused with each other at times...LOL)
p.s. Hey AEB, you're not by chance, my long lost 5th cousin, twice removed? [g]
